Superior HDPE Materials
These coveralls are made of HDPE, also known as high-density polyethylene. This material has the following key features perfect for research applications:
- Non-bleaching and UV resistant for experiments involving light
- Withstands higher temperatures than low density polyethene, up to 120°C for short periods and 110°C for continuous use
- Brittleness temperature at -100°C for studying in cold conditions
- Chemically resistant for storage and experimentation with a variety of solutions
Polyethylene Material
Being HDPE based, these coveralls are predominantly made of polyethylene. This type of plastic has various benefits for research and medical applications, including:
- Strong and sturdy, resisting any tears or rips which compromise hygiene
- Moisture resistant, ideal for using with liquids and substances
- Good chemical resistance for use with acidic or alkaline substances
- Fatigue resistant for use with heavy or sharp substances requiring analysis
WhatIs Tyvek?
DuPont Tyvek is a unique nonwoven material only from DuPont. Tyvek is made of 100% high density polyethylene fibres randomly laid and compressed to form a remarkably tough printing substrate that is ideal for applications where durability & tear resistance is of prime importance. Tyvek can resist repeated folding and flexing without tearing, and can also be glued, laminated, sewn, stapled and fixed.
The Benefits of Tyvek
Tyvek combines the performance of paper, film and fabric and thus makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, meaning it also has a number of unique benefits when being used as a material for protective clothing:
- Breathability, since it allows water vapour to escape (keeping you cool all day long)
- Water resistance since it sheds rain, snow and pills
- Tear resistance, since it resists punctures, tears and abrasion
- Light-weighted material keeps clothing non-bulky for comfortable wear
- Paper-like material looks as light as a feather but is considerably stronger
- Eco-friendly design is fully recyclable and made out of HDPE
